Wildlife all gone?

[toolwhiz]

After taking a job to get just 8 meat for the hunter all wildlife is gone. Played for 5 days and searched the whole map every day and no wildlife! Is this a known bug? Or am I just the lucky one, lol.

Maybe that is part of the Quest?

Any way to get the wildlife back? I have tried starting new game, but still no wildlife on entire map.

I had to just start over to get the wildlife back myself. Tried playing through an entire week and never did get any back! I suggest never accepting the job from the hunter to supply meat!!!!!!

Hi, as explained in another thread: https://steamcommunity.com/app/1119730/discussions/0/3369279631101241882/
Windlife spawns kick into action when you reload the game, then as days go by a few more will spawn to reach max capacity. Then as you hunt, the numbers will go down and it takes a few in-game days for animals to respawn.
There's a map I posted in the other thread with common locations for wildlife, accepting the quests from the hunter doesn't impact spawns :)
